“What is your favorite memory of the last six years? Since Egan’s been born?”

His question startled her, and she frowned at the way it

made it her think. Tapping her finger atop the table as he lifted his wineglass to his lips, she pondered it.

“I think,” she admitted quietly, “it was a few months before Egan’s fourth birthday, and he woke up incredibly happy. He was cuddled up next to me and he asked me what his brother’s name was. I’d never mentioned him having a brother. He was only three, so he wasn’t drawing intricate pictures of anything other than scribbles and stuff, so I hadn’t realized he was dreaming of Roan yet. I lost him when I was

or every six weeks. Egan said before Roan finds it draining to his spirit to relay messages. It uses energy. They communicate telepathically to play but when it’s a message meant for me, Egan says Roan speaks to him out loud. The same with my Dad.”
